SWR tolerance?

New (tr)usdx owner and I was wondering how resilient are the FETs with mismatch/high SWR in everyone's experience? Not that I'm planning to abuse them but curious about normal things like manual tuner use and accidents (antenna not connected) as we're all only human. Thankfully replacement isn't too difficult (when parts are available) but will the smoke in a second or take some abuse first?
